Every week Euro Puppy portrays 2 dog lamps. Is one wacky and the other one tacky? Are both wacky? Or both tacky? We will leave it up to you to decide. While having our own beliefs about them, we would love your comments...are they wacky or tacky? Enjoy....

Lamp # 1: This Personalized Lithophane Dog Light is based on an old magical art form called lithophanes. Lithophanes date back to the late 1800’s, found both in France and China. Lithophane is originally a porcelain engraving based on a photo that comes alive when illuminated from behind. Today, these pieces use modern, long lasting materials. The key is in finding that favorite photo that captures a moment and brings back feelings and memories...in this case it is of someone's favorite Siberian Husky.

Lamp # 2: Industrial designer Nicolas Gonzalez Garrido has created this cool Dog lamp. It’s called the Guide Dog because when you enter a dark room and whistle, it illuminates to show you the way. At this point the lamp is just a design concept, and Nicolas hasn’t announced plans to produce it. Would be cool to though, don't you think?
